Let's Play 20 Questions

Who: Everyone
When: Day 30, afternoon
Where: the Aurora

[Though the sun should be high in the air, just after noon the sky clouds over, and a steady drizzle begins. While gloomy, it's not particularly harsh, and the warm weather means you might even enjoy being out in it! In fact, the relatively thin and patchy clouds mean you may seem rainbows here and there. It's quite nice, really -- except, that is, that there are now tiny frogs everywhere. Near the train they're safe, but closer to the corrupt areas they're toxic.

At the same time, you hear the jingle associated with an official message from your Chain -- the usual "newbie time" balloon animation and text:]

WELCOME NEW HEROES

[This round's new blood are waking up in their rooms, in the usual nondescript undies or team pyjamas.

For the first hour or so, it seems that'll all that'll happen today. But then there's that all too familiar Trial feeling...

...Aaaand a flashy pink convertible has arrived in the clearing. It's followed up by another message:]

Hello, everyone. Your ever-grateful Prince speaking. It's been awhile and we've got some new faces, so I'm here to answer a few questions.

Buut to spare myself a little, I'm limiting it to one question per hero. I'll tell the truth, no matter what you ask, as long as it's at all reasonable! After that though, I reserve the right to cut you off -- but I won't, probably, if you play nice.

Sooo, how about you come outside and see me?

[Message sent, Cardamom gets out of his car and unfurls a big, incredibly sparkly silver umbrella. It looks like the most intensely holographic nail polish you can buy, and the raindrops only make it worse.]

[[OOC NOTES: As the monthly prompts, the rain and frogs will continue until next month's placements. You can find more info on them in the announcements over here!

If you want to tag Cardamom, there's a toplevel here. If you have any questions, please ping the mods via the q&a. Thank you!]]

[use your words and ask, maybe, crow. you can for everything else.]

Nothing is on fire, I hope.

[She sighs, like she might be used to this, but she's certain Crow would sound more urgent about it if it were an emergency.

Probably.

But she is mostly joking, considering he said everything is fire (though the repetition is susp--

wait.

Waaaaaaait.)]

What is inside, Crow-san?

[ Crow's grin grows more lascivious. ]

You're a clever girl. I'm sure you can guess.

[She is too excited to be sexy right now--her brows upward and her lips part with curiosity and delighted surprise.]

Is it here? Finally? Have you seen it?

Saw the door, figured I'd wait for you to check out the inside.

[ So let's GO, his tone implies. ]

[She is very quickly running out of the water and slipping on her sandals in as dignified a manner as she can before running to his side--

and pulling him into a deep kiss.

It is raining, after all. She needs to for the bucket list.

But even if Crow might be colder because of it, she remains Soft and Warm. Sweet, even amidst the sea salt.]

[ The salt just makes the warmth and taste her lips that much sweeter. He drags her in closer, his hand at the small of her back as he responds eagerly-- hungrily, even. It's a pity her hair is bound in that tight bun, he'd love to wrap his fingers in those silken strands. But this is more than pleasant enough on its own. ]

[She does not want this to go forever here. Oh, certainly, she is not opposed; she is beyond comfortable where she is, the rain falling on them both, cool, cleansing, refreshing, as though kindly permitting all the filth that is yet to come with its wonderful blessing.

The energy she has from being out here, entirely in her element makes her feel...

well, randy.

And she draws Crow's bottom lip into a slow suck before letting it go in a lewd pop. She follows with a whisper by his ear, her voice carrying just fine amidst the noise of the rain and waves alike.]

I wish to lick all the rain off your skin.

[ As much as Crow enjoys the rain and wouldn't mind getting laid out in it, that was not the goal he had in mind for this encounter. Another time perhaps, and he's fairly certain she wouldn't have any objections to that one. He doesn't get energy from the rain the same way that he does-- he's almost guaranteed to end up getting a cold from the amount of time he's been spending in it today-- but he's still pretty fond of it nevertheless.

Her breath warms his face as she murmurs into his ear, lewd promises that send pleasant shivers down him. ]

Then what are you waiting for?

Let us be on our way, then, Crow-san.

She is ready to light this candle and detangles from him a little to prepare herself to head in as quickly as she's able.]

Yes, let's.

[ He's following at a pace that's only somewhat leisurely-- he's more than ready to break in their new party room, has been waiting for it for long enough at this point. ]

[Time to sneak into Crow's room through licorice and she will let them both inside, taking a moment to absorb the new surroundings.]

Goodness.

[ Crow lets out a low whistle. ]

Looks even better than it did in my head.

Dare I even ask what you had imagined?

[She is teasing, a little.

Goodness, he looks so good wet, what even.]

[ He really does. ]

A little smaller, maybe. Less dramatic. This suits my tastes much better.

[ Hers too, he's imagining. ]

[It is so red and black, but she is fine with like, conceding to this aesthetic tbh. The black isn't a problem, really, though now she wonders if she shouldn't get more of it to match it. She'd hate to class with the interiors.]

I am glad.

[She turns to face him, a hand boldly pressing against the flat planes of his stomach.]

I think...perhaps we should get you out of those wet clothes, first.

[Which is easily solved with her magic, honestly, but she wants to act like she has precedent for the fun of it. They could break in their shower and then a bath, but she likes the idea of him finding warmth in her, since she will not have been affected by the cold rain as he would have.]

What shall we do, hm?

[ He'd much rather warm up with her too, honestly. They can test out the shower later. ]

I think I'd rather get you out of your wet clothes first. Not that they don't look amazing on you.

They are wet clothes, Crow-san.

[She does not see the appeal, at least in terms of herself. He is, ironically, smokin' hot while being cold and wet.]

Yeah and the way they cling to your breasts is like a gift from the Goddess herself.

[She starts, quietly. Her face is immediately pink, embarrassed to be compared so highly but also why you like tiddy so much.]

C-Crow-san! You--you are so incorrigible.

[She lightly flicks him in the forehead.]

[ BECAUSE BREASTS ARE AWESOME. ]

I'd say more encouragable.

[ No, he's both. ]

I will enable nothing of the sort. Not that I need to.

[You require no encouragement, sir!!!!]

But I love being encouraged.

[ He pulls her in towards him and nibbles on the crook of her neck, both of them still wet and fully clothed. ]

I think you wish for a partner-in-crime.

[Even if she is chiding and fussy, it obviously means very little in the end, because she lets him draw her close, her hand bracing lightly against his chest and wandering.

She makes a soft noise, craning her head to allow him better access, the slow, rolling grace of the motion belying her eagerness. He is so good with his mouth. He is so good with his teeth.]

Maybe even literal crime.

Heheheh.

[ He huffs a light laugh onto her flesh. ]

It's only a crime if you get caught.

[ His hands slide down to cup her ass. ]

Words to live by that are not at all terrible nor dangerous.

[Her fingers find a nipple and she pinches it, just shy of pain. Partly because she wants to, partly out of rebuke.

So, really, because she wants to.]
